Lose It! iOS 12 Updates

iOS 12 has officially made its debut, and we’re excited to share the Lose It! app updates included in Apple’s new release.

Siri Shortcuts allows us to anticipate when you’re likely to add a meal and what you might have had for that meal based on your previous tracking habits. We’ve added this great new feature into our iOS app, which means this new capability is always at your fingertips!

If you aren’t familiar with these new Apple features, here’s a rundown of what they are and how they’ll make your Lose It! experience even easier.

Siri Shortcuts

Siri Shortcuts look like notifications, but are different in a few key ways. The main one is that they are behavior-driven; the Lose It! app communicates to Siri which foods you log, which meals you log, and when you usually mark your day complete. From there, Siri learns these habits and can get really specific about the recommendations it provides to you.

Siri Shortcuts will get smart about what you log for each meal and prompt you to log it.

Siri uses machine learning to provide intelligent suggestions, so the more you use it, the better it becomes at learning your logging habits. If you’re a committed Lose It! user, you’ll get smarter, more specific suggestions and shortcuts into the app, making it easier to log.

If you’re interested in trying out these new features, update your iPhone’s operating system to the new iOS 12 software. Then head into the app store on your phone and make sure the Lose It! app is up to date. Enjoy!

Hi, I'm Erin! I have been leading the marketing team at Lose It! since April, 2017 and have spent the earlier part of my career in the healthcare marketing industry. When I'm not at the Lose It! office, I'm often found teaching indoor cycling classes, checking out a new fitness class, or exploring a new part of this beautiful city. A New Englander through and through, some of my favorite foods are regional classics: lobster roll, corn on the cob and apple pie!
